Very strong riverfront location: quiet, scenic spot by the river with easy access to kayaking and local sights; praised in multiple languages.

Comfortable beds and some spacious rooms reported, but several guests cite creaky floors, thin bamboo walls (noise transfer) and occasional dark rooms — overall slightly below excellent.

7
Mixed: many guests felt the price was reasonable for the experience, but at least one guest reported poor-value extras (overpriced/poor-condition scooter rental) and issues with room standards.

Super Unterkunft in Loboc
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage, direkt am Fluss. Super Service, wir haben nur hier gegessen, es war sehr lecker. Zimmer waren sauber. Man kann einen Roller ausleihen und kann damit sehr gut alle nahegelegenen Sehenswürdigkeiten abfahren.

Fantastic Jungle stay!!
Pros:

I loved the Jungle location, the friendly staff and the authenticity of the property. Everything was very clean and very cute, nestled amongst nature! Food was good in the property and we did the kayak river trip arranged by the hotel which was fantastic. Would highly recommend!

Un lugar agradable
Pros:

El personal es súper agradable, está al lado del Río donde hay una plataforma donde puedes sentarte y ver las vistas, y el sitio es muy tranquilo.

Cons:

La única pega es que las habitaciones al ser de bamboo retumbaba toda la habitación cuando alguien caminaba en la habitación de al lado

Alojamento para 1 noite no máximo
Pros:

Pontos positivos: localização e funcionários simpáticos.

Cons:

Pontos negativos: o quarto estava cheio de insetos (até conseguiam atravessar pela rede mosquiteira). O quarto não tem isolamento nenhum, eu conseguia ouvir a conversa dos vizinhos do quarto ao lado e sempre que eles davam um passo, a minha cama estremecia.
Animais nas redondezas que faziam barulho durante a noite e também no telhado de palha, ouvia-se um animal sempre a andar pelas palhas…

Alugamos uma mota por 500 pesos o dia (já estou a viajar há 15 dias nas Filipinas e esta é a mais cara até agora, em Anda alugamos uma mota 125 de cilindrada por 350 pesos)… mas pior foi quando vimos a mota… pagamos 500 pesos por uma mota velha, sem amortecedores, deram-me 2 capacetes (1 não fechava e o outro não abria). No final do dia, não aguentei de dores de corpo pelo facto da mota não ter amortecedores… e conduzimos sempre super devagar! É inadmissível entregar uma mota deste jeito, quando se paga 500 pesos por dia… nem em Anda, nem em Camiguim e nem em Siargao pagamos esse valor… e sempre tivemos motas em muito melhor estado.
Os lençóis estão manchados, como podem ver pelas fotografias. A minha reserva do booking diz que o quarto inclui secador, estendal para a roupa, gel desinfetante para as mãos e bidé… contudo o quarto não contém nenhum destes itens.
